Went last night for the first time and is the best food I have had in recent memory. From the service to the presentation to the superior quality of the food, I can't say enough about this restaurant. The ambiance is lovely as well. I can't wait to return .

*4.5 - Everything that we ordered was great! The Chips are a must and are fried to perfection and a HUGE portion. I WISH there was a la carte dips! The mortadella pistachio pizza was spectacular, light, crispy and all quality ingredients. Garlic shrimp were a great size and had just the right amount of smoky paprika. Also ordered a side of cheese bread which is a must just to dunk on the leftover garlic oil. For mains ordered the Duck Ragu and Skirt Steak. The Duck ragu had good flavor, I just think this dish would have paired better with a different style pasta and could have used some finely grated cheese. The skirt steak was good, nice wood fired taste and great presentation. The service was super nice and professional but be prepared that this isn't a quick dinner. Prices were on the higher side but the quality showed.

This is a place where chef's eat. The culinary talent is spot on. Casual place, little noisy at peek times. Unfortunately, seating is a little tight. I had to move several times as customers and waitstaff need to get get passed me to serve near me. Food was closed to perfect in our eyes. Octopus, ceviche, pizza, paella, skirt steak, flan, and afogato was spectacular!! As always, great job chef's as always!

On a busy Saturday night, with lots of noise, our party of 5 ordered 3 of their exotic and dry cocktails along with a pitcher of delicious sangria. Wow! What tremendous salads with tender beets and super soft goat's cheese topped it off. Scrumptious cold, Tapas scallops and Rigatoni Bolognese satisfied the palate (as they always do) and a beautiful evening, in a softly lit room with our polite and attentive waitress was attained.

Holy shit this was terrific. I just had a food organism. You need to eat here. The service was terrific.

From the moment my boyfriend and I were seated and looked at the menu, we knew we were going to love our meal at Olar Noso. This spot is about 40 minutes away but I would gladly make the drive for this excellent food. This is a tapas restaurant but they also have several regular side dishes to choose from including a large variety of pizzas! They do have a bar and a really interesting selection of cocktails. They all sounded delicious. We ordered a variety of things to share because why not? The best thing we ate was the fennel salad. Finely shredded fennel, thinly sliced apple, roasted nuts, the best shaved cheese, all tossed in the most perfect and light vinaigrette. We literally debated on taking one home it was that good!! In addition to this, we ordered oxtail empanadas, grilled octopus, Spanish fries, and a pizza. Everything was absolutely delicious. The portions were generous for tapas style. We surely didn't leave hungry and even brought home some leftovers. The hardest part was only picking a few things to try! I can't wait to return and try some of the other items on the menu. The service was also top notch. Everyone was attentive and very friendly. My water glass was never less than half full and our waitress kept checking in to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. 5 stars for sure!!

we have driven by this place so many times and have been always wanting to give it a try. tonight we finally did - and it was pretty good. I think we will definitely go back again. while they do have a few entrees and a nice mix of specials, this place is predominantly a tapas joint. I had the goat cheese fritters which were amazing. I also had the ceviche special which was so interesting as it had pomegranate and blood orange in it. dessert was just okay. service was good. a little on the pricey side but the food was tasty. likely we will come again.

We absolutely love Olar, never had a mediocre meal, let along a bad one. The food is consistently delicious and the service is friendly and informative! All their pizzas are superb, and we always look forward to their specials as well.

Dinner was fun at Olar Noso! The restaurant serves up delicious rustic Neapolitan pies and classic Spanish tapas. We had a large group dinner here. Kit made the reservation and had already planned out the best dishes to order. We had both the white sangria and red sangria to start, then scallops tapas and pizzas, seafoods, paella, steak, fries, and so much more. The drinks were fantastic and food is excellent. Note: The restaurant only takes cash.

I discovered Olar before it became Olar Noso, and it was a hole in the wall place in Piermont. I was so saddened to find out it closed after the pandemic. I'm still grieving the closure of Aquagrill in Soho, pizzeria Sirenetta in upper E side, and my favorite Mexican restaurant- Itztocan in E Village. To my relief, I found out about Olar's reopening in North Vale NJ by periodically searching for any news of it online. It was a loooooong wait, but so happy to have them in NJ side. I miss the homey vibe of the old Olar and the owner, but his son has taken up the torch, and is doing a fabulous job. The food is still the same and the service still feels warm and inviting. What I love about Olar Noso is their specials menu. I think it changes every week because I never get the same menu a week apart. The specials items sound so good that I rarely order from the regular menu because I don't know when the special items will reappear. The salad and fish dish on the special menu are usually on point and creative. I go often because I want to know what's the special of the day. As for the regular menu, my favorite is the mariscada salsa verde. Their salsa verde would make even old shoe leather taste good. Everything is seasoned perfectly and never salty. Since they often use ingredients that are in season, they are always fresh and high quality. We usually take pizza to go because there's just too much food, but we don't want to miss out on their pizza. Our fave are mushroom pizza and the artichoke pesto pizza. Very generous amount of toppings. My only gripe is that their pasta game isn't as consistent and strong as their pizza game. Sometimes the pasta is too al dente. I like al dente pasta, but it should have that bit of chewiness. Their pasta feels underdone and hard. One time the pasta was not drained too well and there was a bit too much water in the bottom of the bowl and diluted the sauce. I usually opt for their seafood dish than pasta, but my husband is a pasta fiend. We always say that we have to remember to ask the chef to go a minute longer in cooking the pasta, but we forget. If you get Liv as your server, you'll be very well taken care of. She's one of the best servers I've come across, and I eat out quite a bit. They now take CC, so no more making sure we have enough cash before heading out. Hopefully Olar Noso will be around for a long time. My heart can't take another restaurant closure.
